So maybe they thought, supposing that's something they do, "We like these toys so much we think the kids should have them, too, and who cares what end of the scope or pin they're on anyway!! I mean, what the hell else are we gonna do with all this stuff ready to be hand-me-downs?"

Since that time, 184 state and local police departments have been suspended from the program for missing weapons, tactical equipment, and vehicles.

Awesome.
